Red tail hawk - hungry? Oops there goes anther dove.

What happened to all the birds we used tohave around here?

Gee, that snow looks an awful lot like white feathers...!


I saw what had to have been a hawk, although it was smaller than the red-tailed hawks I have seen. I didn't get a good look at it, as it was chasing another bird across our yard. The reason I suspect a member of the hawk family was that it had to fly through lots of tree branches in pursuit of its quarry. The only birds that will fly kamakazi style through tree branches are birds of prey. (all others stop in the trees, seeking protection whereas birds of prey intend on flying right on through with victim in tow.)

I wouldn't mind a little visit now and then, to keep the regulars on their toes.

Nice get!

DAMN
